After struggling in their first two games, India finally got their act together and notched up a much-needed win against Sri Lanka in a Women’s T20 World Cup match at the Dubai stadium yesterday. The huge 82-run victory has brought them roaring back into contention for a place in the semi-finals.

After the big defeat against New Zealand at the same venue, their Net Run Rate had plummeted to a dangerous level, which they have now improved to a great extent (climbed to second spot in Group A with NRR 0.576). Such a dominating performance augurs well as they are slated to take on defending champions Australia in a must-win last league match on Sunday.
